Electric Vehicle Society | Will EV Charging Break the Grid? with Matthew Sachs, Peak Power @ElectricVehicleSociety | Uploaded May 2023 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
The expected growth of EVs and the associated demand from charging has the potential to break our electricity grid, or revolutionize it. There are a number of strategies to manage the impacts of EV charging demand, but the one with the most potential is Vehicle-to-Grid technology, which reimagines Electric Vehicles as mobile generating stations that can generate revenue while parked for participating in electricity grid services. During this webinar we will discuss Peak Power’s experience with Vehicle-to-Grid technologies, including real world examples of the economics of V2G, the state of the industry, impacts to the grid, and barriers to uptake.
Joining us for this episode was Matthew Sachs, COO of Peak Power, an energy storage services provider focused on delivering innovative solutions to offset the most expensive hours of electric demand for utilities and building owners. Peak has developed an industry leading software platform that uses machine learning to optimize the operation of behind-the-meter energy storage systems and other distributed energy resources including electric vehicles. Peak Power’s “Peak Drive” project is one of North America’s largest demonstrations of the commercial applications of Vehicle-to-Grid technology.
